Welcome to the Boston Chapter!
 The American Institute of Wine & Food is a non-profit organization founded by Julia Child, Robert Mondavi, Richard Graff, and others in 1981 to advance the understanding, appreciation, and quality of what we eat and drink. Please see the national organization's home page for more details on its mission, national events, and links to our sister chapters.
The Boston chapter is one of many across the United States. Along with our sister chapters and the national organization, we promote an exchange of ideas that benefit both professionals and dedicated enthusiasts through publications and programs.
Membership is open to all. It is a wonderful way to meet knowledgeable people in the industry and others that share your interests. We encourage you to be our guest at one or two of the innovative and exciting events we host each year. They include:
* Symposiums on taste, eating habits, and a healthy diet
* Regional or varietal wine tastings
* Organic farm tours
* Ethnic pantry tasting series
* Cooking classes
* Seminars in proper table etiquette and table settings
* The celebration of new culinary talent with scholarships
* Days of Taste, an educational program for schoolchildren
* And many more!
